David's Songs 

(Finally out of Motown's Vault in 2004)

"DAVID" The Unreleased Album, RELEASE DATE: JUNE 25, 2004 (SOLD OUT - OUT OF PRINT) CD edition limited to 3500 individually numbered copies the sound of David Ruffin at the height of his powers can now be heard, 33 years later. The packaging faithfully reproduces artwork of the era, including rare photographs, an essay detailing the sessions and the moment, and full track annotations. It�s late 1969, Ruffin, 28 years old, begins work on a third album, with Motown producers Clay McMurray, Johnny Bristol, Henry Cosby, Ivy Jo Hunter, Smokey Robinson and Duke Browner.  In a move that ranks high among the many Motown mysteries, the album is never released. The performances, many of them new compositions, are never heard again, not even as filler for future albums.

The Great DAVID RUFFIN The Motown Solo Albums, Volume 1 RELEASE DATE: August 26th 2005
CD Edition limited to 5000 non-numbered limited edition copies.

A must have for true fans of  the GREAT "EMOTIVE" David Ruffin

Liner Notes (partial):  As co-lead vocalist for the Temptations, David Ruffin was responsible for some of the most memorable recordings in soul history: �My Girl,� �I Wish It Would Rain,� �(I Know) I�m Losing You,� and �Ain�t Too Proud to Beg,� to name just a few. For those tracks alone, his place in that history is secure. He then embarked on a solo career � a calling he had prior to the Tempts � and further embellished his artistic reputation. Because his solo years were as tempestuous as his relationship with his prior bandmates, these albums have been somewhat overlooked the pantheon of soul. Here�s a chance to readdress the oversight and remember: he is, indeed, the great David Ruffin.
